Shashi Tharoor calls out Congress’ Jaipur candidate for alleged links with website mocking the party

The decision by the Congress party to nominate Sunil Sharma for the Jaipur Lok Sabha seat has stirred up a storm of controversy. Sharma's alleged connection to The Jaipur Dialogues, an organisation known for its criticism of the Congress and its leaders, particularly Rahul Gandhi, has raised eyebrows.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor had earlier raised concerns about Sharma's link with The Jaipur Dialogues. Tharoor questioned Sharma's sudden change of allegiance, referring to it as a "Pauline epiphany."

Sunil Sharma, hailing from a family with longstanding ties to the Congress, has found himself in the middle of this controversy. The Jaipur Dialogues, established by former IAS officer Sanjay Dixit in 2016, has become a focal point of the current controversy.
